Strategic Writing Content
Partner Relations Materials
I designed and developed a strategic presentation deck to communicate the partnership program to prospective partners. This deck supported the acquisition of five new corporate partnerships for the center between 2025 and 2026.
Newsletters
I wrote and sent 120 newsletters and press releases per year featuring research updates, media mentions, and program events for an email list of nearly 40,000 subscribers. I updated templates and messaging based on email analytics using MyEmma, Constant Contact, and Mailchimp.
In 2025, the newsletters achieved a 40% open rate and a 14% click-to-open rate.
Editing and Design
Issue Briefs
I edited, designed, and formatted 26 Issue Brief publications, collaborating closely with economists to translate research into clear, visually compelling briefs. These publications resulted in roughly 100,000 readers annually.
Squared Away Blog
I managed, copyedited, fact-checked, and promoted the Center for Retirement Research’s Squared Away blog, overseeing a team of three writers to ensure timely publication. The blog attracted roughly 140,000 readers annually.
Technical Writing
2020 Presidential Candidates’ Views on Social Security
I created, researched, and maintained a popular publication on each of the 2020 presidential candidates' proposed changes to Social Security’s retirement program. This research was reprinted in The New York Times.
Maryland-Saves Fact Sheet
I researched and drafted a fact sheet highlighting the key elements of MarylandSaves. This publication is widely used by policymakers, government staff, academics, and students.
